Ingredients - Gather 'Round
Here’s what you’ll need to create this seafood masterpiece:
- 9 lasagna noodles
- 2 cups ricotta cheese
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 pound scallops
- 1 cup chopped spinach
- 2 cups marinara sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions - Let’s Get Cooking!
- First things first, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). We want it hot and steamy like a sauna for your taste buds!
- Cook the lasagna noodles in a large pot of salted water until they’re al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat a bit of olive oil and toss in the minced garlic. Sauté it until it’s fragrant (but not burnt – nobody likes that!).
- Add the shrimp and scallops to the skillet, cooking until they turn pink and are cooked through. This will take about 3-5 minutes; you want to watch them like a hawk!
- Stir in the chopped spinach and basil, cooking until the spinach is wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Holy seafood explosion!
- Now it’s time to assemble! Grab a baking dish and spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom. Lay three lasagna noodles on top.
- Spread half of the ricotta cheese over the noodles, then layer with half of the seafood mixture and sprinkle with mozzarella. Repeat the layers, ending with noodles and remaining marinara sauce on top.
- Top it off with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Because cheese is life!
- Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until bubbly and golden.
- Let it cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve! Enjoy your culinary triumph!
This Seafood Lasagna is sure to impress and feed the hungry hordes! It’s perfect for gatherings or, let’s be honest, for indulging all by yourself when the mood strikes. Happy cooking!
